While on the internet I found a week-by-week schedule for boot camp training. If I have figured correctly, Richard is currently in Week 3. It is very interesting and nice to have somewhat of an idea of what he is doing. However, in Week 6 there is a "Defensive Live Fire Exercise". My first thought was "ARE THEY KIDDING?????!!!!! "
Then I remembered some of the "Exercises", both defensive and offensive Richard has been participating in since birth.
The two Defensive exercises that stand out are "Surviving Potentially Boiling Water Thrown In The Face" and "Dodging The Knife That Stuck In The Wall Next To The Head". These two were implemented by none other than Robert and therefore explains the Offensive exercise called "Launching Pillowcase Containing Cologne Bottle At Robert's Head"; one of the few that drew blood.
These incidents don't even begin to scratch the surface and so I am confident that Richard will be fine during the "Live Fire Exercises" down in Fort Benning. He has been training for just this type of activity his whole life.

Great blog Wendy! Reading this post gave me some insight to what I might be experiencing in the years to come with 2 boys! How did you do it with 2 girls also? Where did you hide your Wonder Woman boots? Can I borrow them?
